Authentik Byrek is the only food establishment in the region that is dedicated to this Balkan delicacy! Aioli food truck's owner's have both worked personally with Chef Gordon Ramsay! Baby Blues BBQ Philly also has a celebrity connection with Samuel L. Jackson, who recently ate at their restaurant!

These scones pack the hallmarks of our favorite St. Patrick's Day bread -- loads of currants and caraway seeds -- into a single serving with a light, fluffy texture. Just mix, scoop, bake, and enjoy with a spot of tea.

We found this great read to continue celebrating Women's History Month, the often untold story, women spies during the American Revolution. Women were not allowed to serve in the military, however, it did not stop them from being heroic.

This week for Wellness Wednesday we take you to the TRX and show you two different core movements. The first one we go over is the TRX pike. Keep your legs straight, push your hips to the ceiling, and try to get your feet as close to your hands as you can.
The second movement is a knee tuck. This is a scaled down version of the pike, but will still leave your shoulders and core feeling a burn.
Try doing these in sets of :20 with 10 seconds of rest in between each set!
Check back again next week for another edition of #wellnesswednesday !!

Pi has been calculated to over one trillion digits beyond its decimal point. As an irrational and transcendental number, it will continue infinitely without repetition or pattern. While only a handful of digits are needed for typical calculations, Pi's infinite nature makes it a fun challenge to memorize, and to computationally calculate more and more digits.

We wish we could be celebrating Women’s History Month at the The Library of Congress on March 14th! There will be what we think an excellent conversation with Margot Lee Shetterly and Donna Gigliotti!
Shetterly is the author of “Hidden Figures: the American Dream and Untold Story of Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race.” She is the founder of the The Human Computer Project, an endeavor that is recovering the names and accomplishments of all the women who worked as computers, mathematicians, scientists and engineers at NASA and the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics from the 1930s through the 1980s.
Gigliotti was a producer of the Academy Award-winning film “Hidden Figures,” based upon Shetterly’s book. Gigliotti is one of only nine women to win an Academy Award for best picture. To learn more about this event click here: http://bit.ly/2HmKqst
